Cheer Tumble

 
 

Cheer Tumble!

     Cheerleading has evolved over the years.  Cheerleading is no longer a side show for a boring football or basketball game.  Cheerleading in now its own High Powered / High Energy - Competitive Sport.   Cheerleading is now high powered synchronized routines, high flying stunts, spectacular group tumbling and furiously fast dance moves.  As a sport, Cheerleading now demands the Strength, Flexibility, Athleticism, and Acrobatics that EGC provides. 

     Cheerleading has now become a main-stream sport.  Numerous Universities & Colleges are now recruiting athletes and providing scholarships.  Most local High Schools now require or prefer Cheerleaders to be able to tumble to make the team.  Erie has not completely caught up with the mainstream cheer movement, however to make any NCAA team, you are required to tumble. 

 

     Erie Gymnastics Center produces some of the Best Cheer Tumblers in the World.  Erie Gymnastics works with numerous Cheerleading organizations in the Tri-State Area, making their squads better at tumbling and All Around Performance. (See our Cheerleading Page for details)

"Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it."
